Fans have been eagerly awaiting the episode, excited to see the latest developments and storylines unfold. Anticipation has been high, and viewers are ready to dive into the drama and surprises that await!
Viewers of EastEnders are typically used to the week-daily episodes being uploaded early on BBC iPlayer, allowing them to watch in advance. However, fans were left disappointed today when they noticed a significant change in this routine. Today’s episode was missing from the platform by 6 AM, leaving viewers without their daily EastEnders fix for hours. This unexpected delay has caused frustration among fans eagerly waiting to see the latest developments in the soap.
EastEnders iPlayer episode ‘missing’
EastEnders usually uploads its episodes early at 6 AM on iPlayer from Monday to Thursday. However, today saw a major change that disrupted this routine. Fans, accustomed to getting up early to watch the latest episode, were disappointed to find no new episode available at 6 AM. Even hours later, after multiple refreshes, the episode was still missing.
With viewers eager to uncover Ian Beale’s secret, many took to social media to express their frustration over the unexpected delay.
EastEnders fans frustrated over iPlayer change
Ian’s secret is set to be revealed this week, and fans are eagerly awaiting the drama. However, upset viewers took to X this morning to express their annoyance after being unable to watch the latest episode on iPlayer ahead of time.
One fan commented, “There’s a cruel irony that I’ve enjoyed EastEnders on iPlayer as usual all throughout the football, and now the first day there’s no football, today’s episode isn’t on iPlayer early.”
Another added, “Why is EastEnders not on iPlayer?”
A third user chimed in, “Where is today’s EastEnders? I hope they’ve not delayed it just to include a ‘It’s not coming home, but didn’t they do well?’ scene.” Fans are clearly frustrated and ready for the latest Walford developments!
Where is the latest episode of EastEnders?
While the soap hasn’t confirmed the reason for the episode’s missed 6 AM release, it’s likely due to final edits being made following last night’s Euros. EastEnders typically includes last-minute scenes in response to significant events, so a reference to England’s football loss may have been added.
Fans eager to see Cindy confront Ian about his big secret need not worry any longer! By the time you read this, the episode is now available on the streaming platform. Phew!
